When you work with somebody for a long period of time, you develop a shorthand with everything.

A friend of mine tells that I talk in shorthand and then smudge it.

I guess I was just meant to be a secretary who doesn't take shorthand. I'm a lousy typist, too - 33 words a minute.

There's shorthand that happens when you work with someone you know where you can almost finish each other's sentences. There's just a certain back and forth that becomes much easier with someone you've worked with for so long.

The way I write, words can means lots of different things.

The more clearly you write, the more easily and surely you will be understood.

You can express a lot of things, a lot of action without speaking.

You know that I write slowly. This is chiefly because I am never satisfied until I have said as much as possible in a few words, and writing briefly takes far more time than writing at length.

I'm used to playing characters who have a lot to say but don't know how to say it.

You can't know too much, but you can say too much.
